Chapter 1114

The people who were called were all tense, restraining all emotions, and filed into the villa.

Old Master Jiang had stood in the cold wind for a long time, his body stiff for too long, his legs had long been numb and his blood circulation stagnant. Just as he moved his steps slightly, his legs suddenly lost strength, and his whole body staggered to the side uncontrollably.

Jiang Yuanliang and Shen Ci reacted extremely quickly, both reaching out to steady the old man. Before the two could express concern, Old Master Jiang suppressed the discomfort and urged in a low voice with an urgent tone: "Quick, help me in."

Just like that, Shen Ci helped the old man and followed into the villa.

Most of the people present today did not get the opportunity to be summoned by Master Yu alone and talk separately.

But there was no unwillingness or resentment in everyone's hearts, and their hearts and eyes were full of concern and worry for this otherworldly expert. Solemn sorrow shrouded the entire courtyard.

Outside the bedroom door, several people kept the rules, stood silently on both sides of the corridor, and stepped forward in turn to say goodbye to Master Yu who was dying. The air was filled with heavy sadness, and no one spoke.

"Grandpa, are you okay? Are your legs still very numb?" Shen Ci looked at the old man's tense side face, her heart slightly sour, and couldn't help but lean over and ask softly.

Old Master Jiang raised his hand gently: "It's okay, A-Ci, if you are afraid, wait outside later, just let your father help me in."

"Grandpa, I'm not afraid, I'll accompany you in."

As soon as the words fell, Old Master Qi, who had entered earlier, walked out of the room slowly, his expression decadent and sad.

Wan Hu to the side stepped forward quickly, walked to the side of Old Master Jiang, his eyes full of sorrow, and invited respectfully in a low voice: "Old Master, it's your turn, please come in."

Jiang Yuanliang and Shen Ci stepped into the bedroom on the left and right, steadily supporting Old Master Jiang.

People say that people who are seriously ill and dying are inevitably surrounded by turbid air and strange smells.

But this bedroom was clean and clear, without any filth, only a wisp of elegant and long-lasting sandalwood smoke, quietly flowing in the air, smoothing out some of the depression in the heart.

"What happened to you?"

Master Yu looked at Old Master Jiang and spoke first.

Old Master Jiang stood in front of the bed, staring fixedly at his weak old friend, his lips pursed tightly, and he didn't respond for a long time.

Thousands of words were blocked in his throat, and finally turned into a silent gaze.

Jiang Yuanliang and Shen Ci stood on both sides, accompanying silently, and couldn't speak for a while, so they had to let the heavy silence spread slowly.

At this moment, Master Yu's cheeks had a rare warm complexion, fading away the withered and pale look of the past, looking not like the decay of being on the verge of death.

His heart was clear, knowing that this was what people called the flash of light before death. Because of this, he was willing to see the last few old friends and take advantage of this moment of decent appearance to say goodbye properly.

In this life, he was good at peeking at the mysteries of heaven and earth, could calculate the fate of life and disaster, possessed peerless metaphysics skills, but ended up coming alone and leaving with empty sleeves.

He never married in his life, had no children, was carefree all his life, had nothing when he came, and had no attachments when he left, had no funeral arrangements, and no last words.

The bedroom was dead silent for a long time, Old Master Jiang remained silent, the sorrow surging all over his body wrapped and entangled him, and that old bone that had experienced the wind and frost seemed to be shattered inch by inch in this silent sorrow.

Master Yu's eyes always held a gentle smile. After a while, he slowly turned his eyes, moving from Old Master Jiang to Jiang Yuanliang, and finally, fixed steadily on Shen Ci.

In an instant, the expression in his eyes changed drastically.

The original gentle smile faded layer by layer, replaced by heavy exploration, and then, a look of unbelievable shock rushed into his eyes.

Shen Ci keenly noticed that suddenly heavy gaze, and looked up subconsciously to meet his eyes.

This look made the stormy waves in Master Yu's heart completely surge. He seemed to have caught a glimpse of the most incredible secret in the world, his thin lips trembling slightly, unable to hide his excitement.

Shen Ci's heart tightened suddenly, a thunderous premonition swept through her whole body, her heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably, her fingertips clenched tightly subconsciously, and she lowered her eyes in panic, not daring to meet his eyes again, full of fear in her heart: Did Master Yu see through her secret of rebirth?

After a moment of shock, Master Yu quickly restrained all the waves in his eyes, returned to calm, his eyes still locked on Shen Ci, and ordered in a low voice: "Yuanliang, take your father out first. Little girl, you stay."

Jiang Yuanliang and the old man looked at Shen Ci subconsciously upon hearing this.

"Grandpa Yu, A-Ci she..." Jiang Yuanliang said worriedly.

"It's okay," Master Yu interrupted him gently, his tone peaceful, "Don't worry, this little girl's fate is different from ordinary people. I'm leaving her alone, just to explain a few private words."

He finally looked at Old Master Jiang again, with a sense of farewell in his tone: "Take good care of your body, you old thing have a long life, and your blessings are all behind, go back."

A word of exhortation, gentle and heavy, instantly poked Old Master Jiang's tears. The old man's eyes turned red suddenly, he endured the sourness, turned his head and let Jiang Yuanliang support him, and stepped out of the bedroom heavily.

Everyone who entered to say goodbye today was just to see Master Yu off for the last time. Everyone stood silently, looking at each other, and all the sorrow was hidden in silence.

Only Shen Ci became a unique exception.

The door closed, and only Shen Ci and Master Yu lying on the bed were left in the room.

"A-Ci, come closer."

Shen Ci calmed down and walked slowly to the bed: "Master..."

Master Yu looked at her, and a touch of excitement and agitation gradually emerged in his eyes: "I spent my whole life pursuing the Tao of heaven and reincarnation, the fate of the world, traveled all over the mountains and rivers, seen countless sentient beings, but never had the luck to see such a mystery of fate. I have met you several times, and I knew your fate was extraordinary, but I never expected that you actually hid such a shocking secret."

After a series of words fell, Shen Ci's whole body suddenly had a layer of fine goosebumps, coldness and shock intertwined, spreading through her limbs and bones.

Master Yu really saw it! Even though his words were obscure, Shen Ci knew very well in her heart that the shocking secret he spoke of was the greatest opportunity and secret of her rebirth.

"Not in vain... not in vain I sought all my life... hehe..."

Master Yu's eyes were bright, not showing any decadence of being on the verge of death. He looked up at the ceiling and laughed low.

That laughter was open and relieved, wrapped in the joy of seeing the mystery of heaven, as if in front of this world-shaking secret, the life and death separation that everyone feared also became no longer terrifying.
